User Feedback :: A problem with 0.7.2 bootability?



Several booting improvements were made to the 0.7.3 version...
Using the 0.7.3 could very well resolve your issues...
Give it a try, and see if it helps...

Okay, if I get a chance I'll download it and give it a try. Too bad, though. I'd just gotten this copy from BudgetLinux CDs in the mail right before the new version came out.  :(
In the future, contact DSL about supplying you with your CD copies.
The tiny fee helps with DSL development.

Since John, creator of DSL,  is "the source" , you'll get the latest version.
DSL releases new or updated versions almost every month.
Many other suppliers don't keep up with such a fast paced release schedule.

If an upcoming release is expected shortly,
he will wait until the new version has gone public before sending you your copy.

A link for obtaining a copy directly from DSL is in the main webpage.

I'll likely do that if I decide to use DSL on a regular basis. Just wanting to try it out, I decided to go with BudgetLinux CDs because it was just $2 a CD and I could try several distros for the same low price and one low shipping charge. (Being on a very tight budget these days, I had to stretch my buying power as far as I could.)

In addition, the version I bought was the latest. In fact, DSL went from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2 after I placed my order, and the folks at BudgetLinux delayed the order just long enough for me to get 0.7.2 (the newest at the time).

I've asked about this with regard to Feather Linux, but does or will DSL have some sort of script or other ability to allow people who install to the hard drive to upgrade without a complete reinstall? Thanks.
